Category: Hockenheim

The second half of the 1994 Formula One season began at the Hockenheimring where a huge crowd turned out, most of which had eyes only for championship leader Michael Schumacher. He faced a challenging weekend with his V8 Ford engined car on the Hockenheimring’s long straights, and Ferrari’s powerful V12-engined cars duly swept the front row. Schumacher’s Benetton lined up on the second row of the grid, one place behind championship rival Damon Hill’s Williams.
